72 240Z owner getting back into Z-cars

[bradyzq]

Hi All,

A little intro....

I bought my Z in 1990. It's the first car I ever owned.

She's an orange 72, with triple Weber 40's, 6-1 MSA header, 2.5" exhaust, Toyota front calipers, MSA swaybars, ZX 5 speed, 4.11 R180 (from a 200SX), 15X7 "Golden Wheel Corp" mags (which I bought on ebay years ago).

She's not toooo rusty. Summer only since 1990, and before that the car lived in Tampa.

I haven't really driven her much in the last couple of years. That's because I got into old 5 cylinder Audi Quattros too.

But this year I promised myself I'd get her running like a top. I have an F54 block and a ported E88 head with big valves nicely wrapped waiting to transplant in whenever I can. That part may have to wait a year or so though.

I'm a dyno tuner. So I should be able to get those Webers tuned pretty well, though I focus on EFI.

Anyways, I'm happy to be here!

Cheers,

Brady

Thank you!

She's in winter storage right now, which is a good thing considering from last night through Saturday, we're supposed to get another foot of snow. So, no pics yet.

If this winter ever ends then I'll snap some pics!

Time to go have fun in a quattro!

Cheers,

Brady

Always good to have a Montreal area dyno guy join the board.

I think we met at last month's club meeting.

Good to have you aboard.

Thanks!

Yup, I went on Monday too.

Feels good to be getting back into Zeds again.
